90 Eldest Brother Shen Is Bitter!
Shen Yao suppressed the suspicion in his heart and lowered his head to eat the chicken soup and wontons quietly.
When he saw Ji Zhao’s worried expression from the corner of his eye, he raised his eyebrows without batting an eyelid.
“Alright.” Shen Dashan was the first to put down the bowl and spoon. He smiled brightly and shouted, “Hey, the bill!”
“Father, let me do it!” Ji Zhao hurriedly stood up and said with a smile, “I brought the silver.”
“How can I do that?” Shen Dashan did not say anything else. He took out a dark gray pouch from his pocket. “Besides, I have money. Your mother gives me two hundred copper coins a month!”
Looking at his father’s smug smile, Shen Yao felt his forehead throbbing.
His father probably didn’t know that his mother gave the three brothers at least three hundred copper coins a month, right?
“Ah Tao, we’ve been to the clinic. We’ve also eaten the wontons. Can we go home now?” Shen Dashan glanced at Ji Zhao, who was smiling without saying anything, and asked with a simple and honest smile.
“Not yet.” Ji Zhao narrowed her eyes and smiled faintly. “Father, Shen Yao, we have to go to Big Brother’s pastry shop.”
“Alright!” Shen Dashan nodded. He had not seen his eldest son in a long time.
Shen Dashan placed his hands behind his back and walked in front of the two of them.
Ji Zhao, who was following closely behind, was secretly calculating. She had to think of a way to stop her father from returning to the village.
Shen Ji Pastry Shop.
Shen Dalang was carrying the pastries that had been freshly baked this morning when he saw a few familiar figures from afar. He quickly approached them with a smile. “Father? Third Brother? Third Sister-in-law? Why are you here so early in the morning?”
“Big Brother, Dad misses you!” Ji Zhao was the first to speak and smiled.
Upon hearing this, Shen Dashan blushed. “Ahem, how’s business in the shop recently?”
“It’s quite good. Don’t worry.” Shen Dalang hurriedly welcomed them into the shop and asked happily, “Father, have you eaten this morning?”
“I have.” Shen Dashan nodded reservedly. “Why don’t I see your wife?”
At the mention of his wife, Shen Dalang frowned and said, “There’s something wrong with Dongmei since last night. She feels like vomiting whenever she sees me.”
Eldest Brother Shen felt wronged.
Eldest Brother Shen felt bitter!
Last night, he had bathed happily and was about to find his wife to be intimate with—
His wife’s expression suddenly changed and she even vomited all over him.
“What’s wrong with Eldest Sister-in-law?” Ji Zhao asked with concern. “Where is she feeling unwell? Did you call a physician?”
“Not yet…”
Ji Zhao thought for a moment and walked straight into the backyard.
At that moment, Eldest Sister-in-law Shen, who was leaning against the bed, sighed weakly.
“Sister, don’t scare me…” Feng Chunyan’s eyes were red, and her tone was filled with fear.
“Illness comes like a landslide.” Eldest Sister-in-law Shen ruffled Feng Chunyan’s fluffy hair and comforted her gently. “Chunyan, if Eldest Sister really leaves… You must take good care of yourself, understand?”
“Sister, don’t be like this! I’m scared! Boohoo…”
Feng Chunyan hugged her arm and cried until she was out of breath.
When Ji Zhao walked in, she saw the two sisters hugging each other and crying until they were out of breath.
“This is? What’s wrong?” Ji Zhao hurried forward and asked hurriedly, “Sister-in-law, are you alright?”
“Urgh—”
Before Sister-in-law Shen could say anything, she vomited again.
Shen Dalang, who was following closely behind, asked in a daze, “Why is Dongmei vomiting again? Does she want to vomit when she sees Third Sister-in-law too?”
Ji Zhao felt the corners of her eyes twitch as she held her forehead helplessly.
“Eldest Sister-in-law, are you pregnant?”
